The world lost one of its most versatile, captivating performers when Tim Curry died on Wednesday (Aug. 25).
The English singer-actor passed away at the age of 80 in his Los Angeles home, about 14 years after he suffered a major stroke that resulted in his use of a wheelchair for the rest of his life. His longtime manager, Marcia Hurwitz, confirmed the news to Billboard in a statement praising his “curious, expansive mind and generous, gentle heart, both of which remained open and filled with anticipation until his final breath.”
